PlaneDeck Retrofit STC’d for Older Gulfstream Jets
Gulfstream Aerospace’s PlaneDeck retrofit for the GIV, GIV-SP, GV, G300 and G400 was recently approved by the FAA and EASA. It replaces six cathode-ray tube displays with liquid crystal displays and adds capabilities such as XM graphical weather and electronic charts. Critically, the retrofit offers a path to bring these airframes up to date with capabilities such as Waas LPV approaches, required navigation performance, ADS-B IN and FANS 1/A datalink.

Operators flying older Gulfstreams have a new option to upgrade the original avionics–the PlaneDeck retrofit. Gulfstream Aerospace’s PlaneDeck retrofit, which recently received FAA and EASA certification, replaces six cathode-ray-tube displays with Honeywell DU-885 liquid-crystal displays and adds capabilities such as XM graphical weather, electronic charts and maps and display of video to the approximately 700 GIVs, GIV-SPs, GVs, G300s and G400s still flying.
